Mon, 04 Oct 2010 23:09:25 +0000http://blogs.mercurynews.com/hssports/?p=1116#comment-16446Your list is incomplete. The girls side began in 1977 not 79. How could you miss that! Mary Hile of Peterson High school was MVP of that years tourney who went on to become an All American and then USF coach. Some of the other all tourney players were Michele Hoga and Evonne Sandas. I know this response is late, but I just thought I would let you know.

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 21:09:38 +0000http://blogs.mercurynews.com/hssports/?p=1116#comment-6809Great lists. I’m partial to the late Mike Gervasoni squads of the 1970s – since I was in his program at the time. Vester Robinson (72,73) could really play and at 6’4 was a big guard for his time. Had he chosen UCLA instead of Santa Clara, personally, I think we’d have seen him in the NBA down the line. I think the same could be said for Melvin Holland (78) five years later going to Cal. Mel could really leap and at 6’2 was forced to play out of position at small forward at Cal – he never developed a consistent jump shot. Both were outstanding track and field athletes as well. Vester long jumped 24 feet and ran a 9.9 in the 100 yards. He was on the same team with Olympic sprinter Millard Hampton. Melvin was an outstanding 400 runner.
